In English, we’ve been looking at poetry and playing with words. We split into groups and wrote a group verse. Our poems follow a pattern.
Inside the tower of air
I heard the pattering footsteps in the alleyway
Like the stumble of boulders crunching
In the tower of air
I heard the howl of a wolf
Echoing in the moonlight
Harry & Thomas
Inside the tower of air
I heard the wailing of a glistening ghost
Like the wind blowing in the air
Molly and Mollie
Inside the tower of air
I saw a light flickering in the darkness
Like the moon glistening on the window pane
Ellen and Max
Inside the tower of air
I listened to the sound of wet, squelchy footsteps
Like a plump, vibrant frog burping its morning song
Jamie – Leigh, Hattie, Jamie, Edward, Tabitha
Inside the tower of air
I stumbled through a shadowy tunnel filled with cold blackness
Like a limping blackbird escaping from a terrifying fox.
Alfie, Luca, William, Anabelle, Aleksei
Today we went on to write our own poems and read some of them out to the rest of the class. Tomorrow we are editing and writing out.
